Sezar Waterfall

Sezar Waterfall, also known as Palang-Dareh Waterfall, is one of the lesser-known natural attractions of Lorestan Province. It lies on the route between the cities of Dorud and Khorramabad, on the bank of the Sezar River. Thick moss grows over its rock walls, giving the waterfall a lush, velvety look and a spectacular view all year round. Set in the mountain landscape of the Zagros and right beside the Sezar River, it offers a quiet, unspoiled setting for nature lovers and photographers, and it is one of the most beautiful waterfalls in the region.

After tumbling down the rock walls, Sezar Waterfall pours directly into the Sezar River. The clear water, the moss-covered cliffs, the lush vegetation and the constant sound of running water give the area a special charm. In summer, the pools around the waterfall are a good place for bathing and swimming, and the Sezar River is also a popular spot for recreational fishing in the region. The unspoiled surroundings and the distance from the crowds of the cities make the waterfall an ideal destination for those looking for peace and untouched nature.

To reach Sezar Waterfall, take the Khorramabad–Dorud road, and once you arrive in the area of the Sezar River, cover part of the route on foot. The final approach to the waterfall requires crossing the river, so it is best to visit when there is no rain and the water level is lower. The best time to visit Sezar Waterfall is from late spring to the end of summer, when conditions are better for crossing the river, swimming and enjoying nature. During your visit, please do not light fires near vegetation, leave litter, damage the waterfall's moss, or enter the river when the water flow is high, so that this valuable natural attraction is preserved.
